Just Published—

AMERICAN QUARTERLY REVIEW, No. I. second edition.

With regard to the subjects which are embraced in the design of
the American Quarterly Review, its title and the common and known
contents of the existing models bespeak them sufficiently. Preference
must be given to works and materials, to principles and opinions,
specially interesting and useful to our own country, whether they be
of domestic or foreign origin. Mere party or local politics, polemical
theology, involving injurious and irritating imputations, and whatever
tends to disturb essential morals, fundamental Christian faith, or republican
theory, will be rigorously excluded. As the work is not
meant to be devoted to the views or favourite ends of any member or
section of the Union, neither will it be to any exclusive or partial doctrines
in any of the admitted subjects. The utmost latitude of opinion
and discussion will be allowed, that is compatible with the limits, temper,
and general merit to be required in each article. The resources
and connexions of the proprietors are such, as to place within their
reach copious information of the cotemporary literature and public
concerns of the principal countries of Europe and America; and they
will sedulously avail themselves of all the means of the kind which
they can command, for the enrichment of the Review. They scarcely
need to add, that the work will be truly American in spirit and drift;
patriotism, alert, emphatic, resolute, militant even under certain circumstances,
is a trait which should distinguish it and every similar
production of this country.

Terms of Publication.—It will be handsomely printed in octavo, and
will appear on the first of March, June, September, and December.
The price will be $5 per annum. Gentlemen at a distance, who desire
to have it forwarded to them, will please to transmit the amount

fancy and vivacity.”

PAUL JONES; a Romance. By Allan Cunningham. In 3

TALES, by the O'HARA FAMILY; second series, containing
The Nowlans and Peter of the Castle. In 2 vols. 12mo.

It may well be questioned, whether any story was ever written of a
more affecting and tragical character than “The Nowlans,” in the
present work. Most assuredly there is no need of German horrors
and improbabilities to excite our emotions, when ordinary life teems

[figure description] Advertisement.[end figure description]

with such melancholy events. Some of these, with the remarkable
adjuncts which are presented by the peculiar state of society in Ireland,
and the conflicting interests of two modes of faith, are depicted
with fearful energy in this tale, which, having once read, it will not
be easy to forget.

The GOLDEN VIOLET, with its Tales of Romance and Chivalry,
and other Poems. By L. E. L.

“There is a grandeur in it which shows the possession of masculine

We confess we are lost in amazement at what she has accomplished,
and look forward with strange and indefinable anticipations
of what such a mind may perform.”

Britain, with the real processes adopted in perfecting the useful arts
and national manufactures of every description. By John Nicholson,
civil engineer. First American, from the last London edition, with
considerable additions. In one large vol. 8vo.

This volume is designed to display, in a succinct and cheap form,
and in a correct and comprehensive manner, the actual state of scientific
improvement as it is at present applied to the productive industry
of this empire; not as the same knowledge already exists in books,
but as it is actually found in workshops and manufactories of the
highest character. It will therefore, convey every desirable information
to the studious and improving mechanic and manufacturer, relative
to Engines and Constructions particularly, and to all branches of the
Metallic, Woollen, Cotton, Linen, Silk, Porcelain, and other important
Manufactures.

The strongest proof of the value and popularity of this volume, is
the rapid sale of two large editions in the course of a few months.

“It is a really practical book. Nothing seems to be omitted which
would properly add to its completeness. It is above all price.”

—Birmingham

Professor of Midwifery in the University of Pennsylvania, 2d edition,

of preserving the health and lives of their tender offspring. The very
general approbation it has met with from the profession in Europe
and America, renders it unnecessary to enter into a farther detail of
its merits.

Society, Philadelphia Medical Society, Academy of Medicine,

“The writings of Dr. Dewees will carry conviction to the mind of
every reader, that he is perfectly master of every subject he attempts
to discuss. His papers on Puerperal Convulsions, Extra-uterine Conception,
on the Rupture and Retroversion of the Uterus, and Uterine
Hemorrhage, constitute an invaluable series, which we hope to see
yet further extended.”

“Dr. John D. Godman, Lecturer on Anatomy, in this city, a gentleman
of distinguished professional and literary talents, having undertaken
to translate this small, but valuable volume, for the benefit of
the Students who may honour our University by their attendance, I
shall merely refer to that work, which will probably make its appearance

VEGETABLE MATERIA MEDICA of the UNITED
STATES: or Medical Botany. Containing a Botanical, General, and
Medical History of Medicinal Plants, indigenous to the United States,
illustrated by fifty coloured engravings, made after drawings from nature,
by the author. By W. P. C. Barton, M. D. Hospital Surgeon in
the Navy of the United States, and Professor of Botany in the University
of Pennsylvania. In 2 vols. 4to.

The object of this work is to present the public with faithful representations
of the many important medical plants of our country, most
of which are as yet known only by name, to our Physicians. The engravings
are executed in the best style, after the author's drawings
in which the greatest accuracy is studied. The plates are coloured
under his direction; and are true imitations of nature. The letter-press
contains a systematic or botanical description of the plant, a general
description, and a history of such medical properties as are
worth describing. The economical uses of the plants are also particularly
mentioned.

COMPENDIUM FLORÆ PHILADELPHICÆ; containing a
Description of the Indigenous and Naturalized Plants found within a
circuit of ten miles round Philadelphia. By W. P. C. Barton, M. D.
author of the Vegetable Materia Medica of the United States. In 2
vols. royal 12mo. Price three dollars in boards.

This work has been written entirely in English, the more easily to
assist the tyro, and with a hope too, that it would be more likely to
invite the attention of those to the study of botany, who might not be
willing to encounter the laborious task of reading descriptions of
plants in Latin technical phraseology, always constrained, and never
alluring, either from its elegance of purity.
